Okay, I could imagine Dr. Who and Alice in Wonderland somehow running into one another in time, but I never expected to see Bill & Ted rearing their '80s heads and leaning to the side to let in Chell portal on through!

Why do the male characters all look so happy while the female characters are upset/sad? Maybe because the men have infiltrated the fantasy land of the women with their time-travel devices? My inner feminist is raging at the injustice portrayed by this patriarchal shirt design. Down with the time-traveling chauvinist pigs!

When considering the source material as a whole, the expressions for the characters are pretty accurate. The Doctor tends to grin at everything until the chips are down, and I'm at a loss to find a point where Bill and Ted treat anything seriously. Chelle, on the other hand, is rather grim in all of her source material, game and tie-in comic alike (she's in a dystopian future fighting for her life against a homicidal AI, so it's rather understandable - but maybe she'll be happy now, because she finally got some cake!). Alice on the shirt seems more shocked and bewildered than sad or upset, which also seems par for the course of the canon material, let alone facing the prospect of a bunch of interlopers. Of course, with how surreal Wonderland is, you can't blame the other travelers for wanting in on the bizarre fun.

I suppose the bunny being The White Rabbit kinda fits, but I am more inclined to suspect the rabbit doll is Mimzy: the adorable mind-enhancing, time-traveling, DNA-collecting rabbit doll from the film "The Last Mimzy."

Whoa, is that what that movie is about? Maybe I should have listened to my former roommate when she told me I ought to watch it.

For instance, I love fairy tales, casually enjoy Dr Who, adore portal, but hate stoner flicks.
The one reference loses a sell.

Yeah, pretty much. Got them all except the portal thing which flies over my head.

...which is a reference to Through the Looking Glass. The original short story was called 'Mimsy Were the Borogroves', which is a line from 'The Jabberwocky'.
